Signs You Need Roof Repair
The location of a roof on your home—above your head—means it may not always be easy to notice that it has fallen into disrepair. If you’re able to take a closer look, you can check for the following signs that indicate you require professional roof repair in your Long Island home. It’s always best to get problems addressed at the earliest notion of trouble, because, if let sit for too long, they can get worse and cost you even more to fix in the future.
Damaged or Missing Shingles
One or two cracked shingles may be no big deal, however if you see more than a few shingles are damaged or completely gone, that leaves your roof—and your home—vulnerable to water and pests getting inside. Get in touch with us to repair your roof as soon as possible.
Sagging Roof Deck
When a roof sags, that can be a sign of a serious structural issue that threatens the safety of your home. You won’t want to delay calling in a professional like us at King Quality if you notice this potentially hazardous symptom.
Leaking Roof
If you are seeing water stains bloom on your ceilings or even drops drip down onto your floor, that can be due to a roof leak. Roof leaks can lead to mold growth, which endangers your health and takes a toll on your home’s structural integrity. We’ll repair the leak in your roof so you can avoid any further water damage.
Granules in Gutters
Check your gutters for signs of accumulating granules (a part of your shingles). You should contact us right away if you notice them, since we’ll need to help you decide if we can repair the damage or if you need a new roof, instead.
Increase in Energy Bills
When noticing a sudden increase in your energy bills, you should first check your HVAC system for inefficiencies. If there are none to be found, the culprit could be your roof. Our team will thoroughly check your roof for any gaps that could be causing an escape of energy and make sure they are properly sealed. When there are no gaps in your roof, your heating and cooling systems will be able to work with less resistance to control the temperature in your home.
Roof Damage: Main Causes
Your roof can be damaged due to a variety of reasons. When you are aware of what might cause damage to your roof, you will better be able to know how to possibly prevent damage or at least how to know when damage may be a possibility. Some of the common causes of roof damage we encounter are:
- Excessive Heat or Cold: Long Island experiences cold, snowy winters and summers that experience the occasional intense heat wave. Both of these extremes can cause shingle deterioration and negatively affect the roofing materials.
- High Winds: Whether from a nor’easter, a hurricane, or just a nasty storm, strong winds can cause your shingles to blow clear off your roof, making you vulnerable to water damage.
- Hail Storms: If a thunderstorm produces hail, that hail can cause holes in your roof that will need to be repaired.
- UV Exposure: Simple exposure to the sun’s ultraviolet rays over time can cause your roofing to begin to degrade prematurely.
- Incorrectly Performed Roofwork: If your roof has had installation or maintenance performed on it that is subpar, that could lead to problems down the line. If your roof is not adequately ventilated, for instance, moisture can build up and cause your roof to age more rapidly.
- Aging Roof: Completely unavoidable, time will always eventually take a toll on your roof. Over time, the shingles on your roof will begin to lose granules as they become more brittle. This damage can lead to holes in your roof where moisture and critters can get in.
